Expert: Missile attack on Kyiv during African leaders' visit is attempt to force negotiations
Petro Chernyk, a military analyst, said this in a commentary to the Military Media Center, Ukrinform reported.
"The missile attack on Kyiv during the visit of African leaders is an attempt to force negotiations. They have their own satanic logic. They show that they have no rules," he said.
As reported, a number of African leaders arrived in the Ukrainian capital today. The aim of the visit is to propose a plan to end the war.
According to the analyst, Moscow believes that in this way it can force African leaders to put more pressure on Ukraine to start negotiations. "African leaders are in Kyiv, ballistic missiles start flying - and they have a human fear of death," Chernyk said.
He added that "this causes a very simple reaction - we need to negotiate and finally stop this whole horror." "They (Russia) are trying to put pressure on the psyche, they don't know any other way. This is a classic NKVD methodology, nothing has changed since then," the expert emphasized.
As reported, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba called the missile attack on Kyiv during the visit of African leaders a signal indicating Russia's true intentions.
